Do not be afraid, shepherds.

1. Do not be afraid, shepherds, shepherds, proclaim joy, ; For today the one who was prophesied is born to you, ; From the womb of a virgin, from the blood of a virgin, ; Our Savior God, lie, lie. ; ; 2. And if you want to see this miracle, this miracle, ; Go to my womb and the sign of the night, ; You will find a manger there, wrapped in swaddling clothes, ; You will find a child, under, underfoot. ; ; 3. Not far outside the city, not far away, there is a stable, ; There lies among the cattle, sleeping on hay, straw, ; Beside him the Virgin Mother and her supposed father, ; Joseph and Mary, under, underfoot. ; ; 4. O lucky night, night, happy is that hour, ; Now forget all treasures, this heavenly child, ; The most beautiful flower, the most precious diamond, ; Brought into this world, down, down.
